(2R,3S)-2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic acid hydrate

CAS 5990-63-6: (2R,3S)-2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic acid hydrate

Description:(2R,3S)-2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic acid hydrate, commonly known as L-tartaric acid, is a naturally occurring organic compound with the molecular formula C4H6O6. It is characterized by the presence of two hydroxyl (-OH) groups and two carboxylic acid (-COOH) groups, which contribute to its acidic properties. This compound is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water, making it useful in various applications, including food and beverage industries as a stabilizing agent for certain proteins and as an acidulant. L-tartaric acid exhibits chirality, with two stereocenters leading to multiple stereoisomers, but the (2R,3S) configuration is the most common in nature. It plays a significant role in the wine industry, where it is involved in the stabilization of tartaric acid salts during fermentation. Additionally, it is utilized in pharmaceuticals and as a chiral auxiliary in asymmetric synthesis. The hydrate form indicates the presence of water molecules associated with the compound, which can influence its physical properties and stability.
